Here's an idea - ship the cars to the dealers with no badges, and let the 
buyer decide if they want Oldsmobile or Buick on the car... ;-) As one who 
drives the Avis rental fleet far more than my own fleet, all I can say is 
"good riddance"! If I never have to drive another brand-new (or heaven 
forbid 20,000 mile) Oldsmofloatmobile again I will be perfectly happy.

You know you travel alot when the Avis counter folks at several airports 
greet you by name as you walk up...
